This drink has romance written all over it.

It’s perfect for date night, an anniversary, Valentine’s Day, or anytime you want to woo and court someone special.

Not only does it look pretty, but it tastes delicious.

The Elderflower and rosewater add a floral note, the rosé makes it light enough to drink anytime and the tonic water adds a slightly bitter, citrusy fizz.

So cuddle up close and enjoy this magical potion with someone you love.

That’s Amore…Hugs and kisses
